The Emperor Kneels

"emperor!"

Zhao Dongting heard Zhao Da's thick voice in the carriage and hurried out of the carriage.

Seeing the two of them covered in dust, he didn't care about their well-being, and said, "Can military order and others get to the Jinjin?"

Zhao Da, Zhao Hu and the scout both knelt in front of the carriage. Zhao Dadao said: "The military order and the soldiers should have arrived in Hanjin, but..."

As he said that, he turned his head and looked at the scout next to him.

The scout quickly took out the letter from his arms and held it in both hands, "Master, this is the urgent military report from General Liu Zijun to you."

Zhao Dongting looked at Zhao Da and Zhao Hu's expressions, and he felt a little uncomfortable.

Inside the carriage, Qin Han also raised his ears at this time.

After he learned that Wen Tianxiang led his army out of Wuzhou City, he expected that their journey to Hanjin would not be too smooth.

Now, there must be a result, right?

Zhao Dongting opened the letter, but his face turned pale.

He knew that the Yuan army would sooner or later catch up with Wen Tianxiang and the others, so he asked Yue Peng and the others to rush to support him, but he did not expect that the losses would be so huge.

Although the casualties in the letter are only estimates, the scouts of this era have extremely accurate eyesight, and this estimate is probably not much different from the actual number.

Wen Tianxiang and Zhang Jue's eight armies were left with less than 20,000 people?

The Tiankui Army, Tiangang Army, Tianji Army, and the cavalry who left the city to support them also suffered heavy losses.

The cavalry system of the Song army was almost wiped out in this battle.

This almost made Zhao Dongting faint.

"You guys get up!"

He asked Zhao Da, Zhao Hu and the scout to get up, and then hurried into the carriage.

When he got into the carriage, he handed the letter to Qin Han and said, "It seems that we can't go to Yizhou anymore!"

Qin Han didn't say anything, but just read the letter, and his brows gradually frowned.

Then, he said, "Your Majesty, don't go to Yizhou, are you planning to bring Tianxian army to deal with the Yuan army?"

Zhao Dongting said: "Wen Junjiling and Deputy Junjiling suffered heavy losses. We cannot go to Yizhou to watch the walls. With their current personnel, even if they are guerrillas, they may not be able to fight with the Yuan army for a long time. I intend to bring all the Qiongzhou army and the Tianxian army over there. What do you think?"

When Qin Han heard this, he said quietly: "If this is the case, if our army is defeated, the Song Dynasty will really have no chance to prosper."

According to Zhao Dongting, if the Tianxian army and the Qiongzhou army were brought to the front line, the Southern Song Dynasty would be left with only tens of thousands of soldiers in Qiongzhou, as well as more than 30,000 Leizhou army from Liu Hongyi. The Qiongzhou army was still too busy to deal with the riots, and with Liu Hongyi's 30,000 Leizhou army, there would undoubtedly be little vitality to deal with the Yuan Dynasty.

And why didn’t Zhao Dongting know this?

After a slight silence, he said, "As long as I am not dead, the Song Dynasty will not be considered dead!"

Qin Han said nothing.

In this way, Zhao Dongting led the Tianxian army to stop rushing to Yizhou, but suddenly turned back and headed towards Cenxi.

They are not very far from Cenxi now, and it is only about two days away to Cenxi.

However, the surrendered soldiers and the people in the army made Zhao Dongting a headache. He took the people in Duanxi City out of the city just to keep them away from the war and not to let them suffer from the disaster of fish. It was obviously inappropriate to take them to the front line.

And these surrendered soldiers of the Yuan army, if they were taken to the front line, they would probably be a time bomb.

However, he could not distribute troops to escort the surrendered soldiers of Duanxi and Yuan army to Leizhou.

In the carriage, Zhao Dongting and Qin Han talked about their concerns.

Now, except for Qin Han, he didn't know who to discuss this matter with. In terms of strategy, even veterans like Dongheli were far inferior to Qin Han.

Therefore, even though he knew that Qin Han might have other intentions to help Song, Zhao Dongting had to rely on him.

Perhaps both of them knew very well, but they were just using each other.

Zhao Dongting used Qin Han's mind, but there is no way to know what Qin Han wanted to use Zhao Dongting.

After hearing Zhao Dongting's concerns, Qin Han said: "Since the emperor has decided to let the Qiongzhou army rush to Cenxi, why not wait until they arrive before letting them take these people and surrendered soldiers to Leizhou?"

Speaking of this, his tone suddenly became a little gloomy, "If you think it's troublesome, you can also put them all..."

He didn't finish his words, but his murderous aura was already revealed.

Zhao Dongting's face suddenly became ugly, and he opened his mouth and was about to scold him, but after thinking about it, he still didn't.

He suddenly felt that it was really unnecessary to be angry with someone like Qin Han. He was not his own.

If Qin Han is right, he will believe him. And these bastards are better off as if they have not heard them.

He reached out and slowly stroked the sword sheath of Zhanlu Jian and said, "I don't know why you always encourage me to do these things that go against the way of heaven. But although I don't believe in the way of heaven, I will never point the butcher knife at my own people. But the method ahead is good. After Zhao and Luo lead the Qiongzhou army to Cenxi, I will ask him to send troops to Leizhou with the people and the surrendered soldiers."

The Qiongzhou Army was not the main force in the Southern Song Dynasty, and there were no firearms in the army. Even if it was sent out to escort the people and surrendered soldiers, it would be injustice.

Qin Han raised his eyebrows and stopped talking.

However, Zhao Dongting suddenly pulled out the Zhanlu sword, pointed it at Qin Han, and said, "Qin Han, if I completely rebel against you in the future, how do you think I should treat you?"

Qin Han wisely chose to keep silent.

If you say something, there is really no room for reincarnation.

Qin Han's attitude has always been ambiguous, but he has never completely expressed his position from beginning to end.

Zhao Dongting himself chuckled, "If that day really happened, I would avenge the people in Wuzhou City who were poisoned by you."

After saying that, he suddenly inserted the Zhanlu sword back into the scabbard.

Zhanlu has no light, and its aura is quiet.

Two more days later, Zhao Dongting led his army to outside Cenxi City.

From the scout who returned, he learned that Zhao Dongting had decided to rush to Cenxi, Wen Tianxiang, Zhang Jue and others had already rushed from Hanjin to Cenxi, waiting for Zhao Dongting at the gate of Cenxi County.

The originally scattered generals of the 15th Army of the Song army gathered again at this time, but there were too many faces missing from them.

Zhao Dongting's army had just revealed its tracks at the bend of the official road, and Wen Tianxiang and others had already knelt on the ground.

In their hands, they each held porcelain jars. Inside the jars were the ashes of Song generals such as Ge Lichun, Qi Tianlang, Liu Yong, and Yan Mingling.

The Tianxian army slowly stopped outside the city, and the soldiers separated on both sides of the road, and Zhao Dongting's chariot was pushed out.
